Chapter 98 - Opening the Coffin for Someone
Everyone followed Ling Xiao and stopped in their tracks as they followed his gaze. In the center of the mausoleum, there was a pure black coffins quietly laid out, surrounded by white flowers, candles, and a large group of imposing looking guards.
Faced with such a majestic formation, even if those so-called factions that knew each other wanted to investigate the situation, they would not have the ability to do so.
"Did anyone know when your father was buried?" Ling Xiao looked at the black coffins from afar and asked indifferently.
Ling Xiao did not approach them. He knew that these guards would definitely stop him.
Hearing that, Murong Fu was silent for a moment, then revealed an extremely ugly expression, and said helplessly: "I don't know, when my father was buried, I did not know, and only notified me after everything was settled."
Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Murong Fu, threw him a pitiful smile, and then continued to turn his head to look at the black coffins. He said with a cold smile: "Looks like you're really very loyal to the family.
After hearing this, Murong Fu sighed heavily, "How many fathers in this world would even lie to their sons about dying?"
"That's true. Murong Bo, ah, Murong Bo, you're truly an extremely cold-blooded person. You're actually not even prepared to let off your own biological son." As Ling Xiao spoke, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Murong Fu's expression was extremely ugly. He felt that he had been abandoned by the entire world and then his scars had been exposed by Ling Xiao in front of everyone.
Therefore, Murong Fu could not help but take the initiative to ask: "Sect Master Ling, what are you going to do next?"
After Ling Xiao heard this, he smiled and said: "What else can we do, of course we did it, could it be that we can see the reason just by looking at this coffins?"
"There are so many guards here. Could it be that Sect Master Ling did not see it? To tell you the truth, I have never seen some of the guards here before. Hearing this, Murong Fu could not help but ask with a pale face.
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao could not help but laugh, "You are not even afraid of the assassin himself, why would you be afraid of the person standing right in front of you?"
"Aren't the Ling Gang a little too confident?" Murong Fu raised his eyebrows and asked. He gave up his pride to survive, but he didn't want to die here because of Ling Xiao's self-confidence, in front of his father's coffins.
Ling Xiao stared at Murong Fu for a good while, then suddenly laughed: "It's not like I came alone."
Hearing that, Murong Fu was startled, he then turned to look at Ling Xiao's back, and at that moment, he realised that the person who was initially following him was actually gone!
Unconsciously looking further away, Murong Fu discovered that they were already standing at several positions at the center of the mausoleum, blocking all the entrances.
"What are they going to do?" Murong Fu suddenly thought of a possibility, and could not help but stare with wide eyes.
"What do you think? You're not an idiot, you want to ask this kind of question? " Ling Xiao shook his head and said.
"Are you kidding? There are at least three to four hundred guards here, and there are at least two hundred of us on the road. We only have a few people, yet we want to fight against them!" Murong Fu almost shouted out loud, but luckily his instinct to live made him keep his voice low.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao laughed and shook his head: "Nothing is impossible, we do not need to defeat the few hundred people here, as long as we open the coffins, this battle will be over."
"What?" Murong Fu was startled, and very quickly, he understood the meaning of Ling Xiao's words, but he discovered to his horror that the Ling Xiao beside him had already disappeared.
He hurriedly turned his head to look at Ling Xiao, and realized that Ling Xiao had already appeared in front of the coffins!
"Someone wants to touch the coffins!" It was unknown who shouted loudly, causing the originally silent mausoleum to instantly become lively.
The sound of weapons colliding, heads dropping to the ground, flesh piercing, bones twisting, countless of terrifying sounds mixed together, but none of them were able to stop Ling Xiao from touching the coffins.
With the microstep in his hand, Murong Fu tried his best but he could not even touch a corner of Ling Xiao's clothes. With the strength of these guards, what could they do?
They could only watch as Ling Xiao opened the coffins, or rather, brandished the weapon in his hand as he rushed to the front of Ling Xiao, together with Ling Xiao, to see what was inside the coffins.
"Crack!" Following a loud and clear sound, the seemingly solid coffins was pushed away by Ling Xiao, and then the rumbling sound of the coffins moving was heard.
Feeling the heavy weight in his hands, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh. This coffins seemed to be pitch black, as if it was just a piece of wood, but in reality, it was a priceless obsidian. That was why Ling Xiao could feel such a heavy feeling.
Seeing that Murong Bo's coffins had been pried apart by Ling Xiao with just one hand, the guards were all dumbstruck. The key thing was that they did not see how Ling Xiao had gotten there, let alone that Ling Xiao had lifted the coffins up in front of them.
After who knows how long, one of the guards finally reacted and pointed at Ling Xiao while shouting, "Who is it! He actually dared to touch the Patriarch's Tomb! "You sure have a lot of guts!"
Following this person's angry shout, all of the surrounding guards reacted and prepared to gang up and capture Ling Xiao. However, Ling Xiao was looking at the coffins with a calm expression, as if he had not noticed them at all.
"You guys like to guard an empty tomb so much?" Just as the weapons of the guards were about to come into contact with Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao turned his head around, followed by a burst of tyrannical Qi, causing the guards to retreat a few steps, at the same time, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, they never thought that Ling Xiao's strength would be so strong, just an aura was enough to make them retreat a few steps, but the most important thing was what Ling Xiao had said at the end.
"What?" Is this place empty? " A guard stared in disbelief.
"That's impossible, the patriarch was buried alive, and the guards kept watch over him day and night. How could someone steal the patriarch's body?" It was obvious that he was worried about his own negligence. If the people from Mu Rong family knew about this, they would definitely not be able to handle it.
As the guard spoke, the rest of the guards' faces also paled.
